The Art of Simplifying my Life in 2010
Wow...I recovered the password to this blog because it's been this long. I've been cleaning up blogs, closing down domain names, and getting my cyber world into check. I've been gone for the last month on a work holiday to California where I was subjected to my family and their demands. Not exactly a work environment and I didn't get a creative word written.
I do have a lot going on and nothing. I realized lately that I really don't like Typepad or paying $120 a year to host my website Modern Girl Style. I also feel like I can't keep up with the demands of constantly reporting on design trends. I think I need a break. I looked at the process of trying to move my Typepad account back to blogger and I find that it's impossible, short of copy & paste over 500 posts. Since I'm trying to simplify, who cares and I think I just might delete the whole blog. I'll think about it over the weekend and decide after that.

Current Writing Project
It has been three years and I've rewritten the same novel three times. It went from a romantic chick-lit murder mystery (totally awful and didn't work) to a straight thriller (something I'm really excited about and can't wait to share). My goal is to finish this last draft and share it with the people closest to me.
What the Deal with this Blog?
The deal is that I want to write short simple blog posts about my writing life and submission process. This should be a great place for me to cope with the whole sha-bang! I also want to share the art of a creative life with as many people as I can and inspire others to do the same.
The world is in a crazy place at the start of 2010, but in the same respect, today is our opportunity to create the life that we want. Dreams are built day by day until they take over reality. Let's journey together on the way!
Thanks for reading, Kamela
